Meet Pastor Linda Hobby Babcock

Mike Hobby and his wife Linda had a unique perspective of what it's like to be homeless and hungry. In 2000 Mike and Linda became homeless themselves as a result of a major medical crisis with no insurance and no means to pay the bills. During their time living on the streets, God placed a burden on their hearts for the homeless.

Equipped with real-life experiences of homelessness and a God-given passion for the down-and-out, a ministry opportunity in Quartzsite, Arizona presented itself. Mike and Linda accepted the call, and in the winter of 2003, the Isaiah 58 Project was established. Their unique ministry to the homeless became a reality. Now a widow, Pastor Linda continues with the passion to help those who are lost to find their way and ultimately for them to become who God designed them to be.

On August 15, 2017 Pastor Linda and Pastor Wayne Babcock, who was serving as

associate pastor of Isaiah 58 married. They are continuing on with the ministry together as pastors. Please pray for God's guidance and continued blessing.
